* PragmaticAdaptation turns the "Marie" of the original story into a "Clara", the name of her ''doll''. But this actually works in the new adaptation, since what else is '''Barbie''' but a doll? It makes perfect sense for her to be given Marie's doll's name from ''The Nutcracker'', and since The Nutcracker himself is a "doll" of sorts, for him and "Barbie" Clara to end up together segues perfectly into the preexisting storyline of Creator/ETAHoffmann.
** Actually, Clara's the name usually given to the lead of the ballet, probably because the backstory's usually excised.
